Red House Shoufu

Chapter 315 Changes in the Capital City

From birth to the time when he was assassinated and injured, Lin Shu's heart was always in his throat and he didn't dare to relax, but now that he is free, he feels a little uncomfortable.

This time he was forcibly "confined" by Daiyu, and after a few days it really gave him a chance to reflect on himself.

After coming to Zhuangzi, he wandered around the farm trail every day, bullying and bullying the little dolls in Zhuangzi.Cheat a few dates today, coax a few small fish tomorrow, and then take the little dolls in the village to bake potatoes and game, and live a happy life.

Daiyu was busy dealing with the water dispute in Zhuangzi in the north of the city. She originally wanted to build a well but found that it was not enough for irrigation.

Finally, I went to the field to investigate, only to find that the flow of the small river disputed by the two families was small, it was indeed only enough for one Zhuangzi, and it would cut off at every turn during the drought.

Finally, I walked around and found that there was a spring on a nearby hill with plenty of water. The only drawback was that the canal needed to be rebuilt.

That hill was originally the land of the Lin family, and now it only needs a canal to lead into the river, enough for the two families to use. The only trouble is the construction of the canal.

"I originally thought that our family would pay and hire some people to repair it, but Madam Zhang said that doing so would only encourage the greed of the other party. The two families should share the water."

Daiyu asked Lin Shu for advice: "The Zhuangzi over there are all poor people, and they don't have any spare money to repair the canals. Or let our Zhuangzi pay for it, and they will contribute. What do you think?"

"The method is good, just do it according to your ideas. It's best to make a contract in advance... The person in charge must be selected well. Although the Zhuangzi over there is poor, just because he dares to fight with officials and officials proves that his waist is strong enough. Mo Let the people below bully others."

It is too easy to destroy people's reputation, but it is even more difficult to rebuild it.If the selected steward is not a good one, and Daiyu is blamed for oppressing the common people, then the loss outweighs the gain.

This was Daiyu's first time handling common affairs in person, so Lin Shu let go of her hand, the young eagle was going to fly into the sky after all, so it was good that he, the eagle, stayed behind to protect her.

……

Beginning in February, the temperature gradually warms up.The wind direction of the capital is three times a day, and the rumors are stronger every day.

The Taishang Huangpan was lying in the Dragon Head Palace and looked down at every plant and tree in the capital. His eyes towards the loyal Wang Gao Yongyi changed from love, guilt to gradually coldness.

Especially when Cao Zijian's "Seven Step Poem" was spread all over the capital, the Dragon Head Palace issued a decree: the northern border is restless, and my heart is worried.Gao Yongyi, the king of Zhongxin County, was well-versed in both civil and military affairs. He was named the General of Fuyuan and given the king's order to control the soldiers and horses of the three provinces of Shanxi, Shanxi and Gansu, and guard the northern border.

On the same day, the cabinet submitted a letter requesting that Qi Bohan, the second assistant of the cabinet, lead the imperial envoys to inspect the military and political affairs of the world, and bestow the emperor's sword to patrol the world.At the same time, Long Jin, Zuo Wu, You Wu, and Xiuyi Four Guards were ordered to dispatch 2000 people and horses, with guards on their side, to investigate the officials all over the world.

On the sixth day of February, the Fengtian Temple is in full swing.The court elected Qian Qianli, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Xia Minxue, Minister of the Ministry of War, to join the cabinet. Liang Ji, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Zhang Yue, the British public, was granted the title of Prince Taibao, the military envoy of the Beijing camp, and guarded the capital.Shi Nai, Marquis of Baoling was ordered to inspect the military affairs of Sichuan, and served as the commander of the Sichuan capital, and Shi Ding, Marquis of Zhongjing, was ordered to inspect Yunnan and Guizhou, and served as the Xuanwei envoy of Yunnan and Guizhou...

On the seventh day of February, Longshou Palace once again passed the emperor's decree to the cabinet, and promoted Prince Teng, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, to be in charge of the nine provinces, and was ordered to inspect the towns on the nine borders.When the emperor heard about it, he appointed him as the capital inspector of the nine provinces, and gave him a BMW and a pair of cars to set off on another day.

There were great changes in personnel in the court, and Daiyu frowned as she watched Wang Lun's successive messages.Although she is not very sensitive to government affairs, she can also draw a conclusion from these news: the Supreme Emperor is giving Gao Yongyi, the former beloved son, one last chance, and even abandoned the prince Teng as a pawn.

The emperor is already making intensive arrangements to reshuffle and rebuild the forces in the capital, so as to completely control the court, eliminate unstable factors, and prepare for the final decisive battle.

These changes were beyond her ability to deal with, no matter how much she felt for her elder brother Lin Shu, she had to discuss with the real head of the Lin family how to deal with it.

After digesting these changes, Lin Shu sighed: "The four kings, eight lords and twelve lords will gradually decline from now on. In the end, it is estimated that there will be few left in the founding line. At least the two historians will not look back. This imperial decree will This is the last reward they received."

"Isn't that going to implicate Sister Xiangyun? Shall we remind her?"

Shi Xiangyun's parents both died, although sometimes he can't speak his head and is a bit annoying, but Daiyu still feels sorry for this little sister.

Lin Shu swayed on the rocking chair, and asked slowly: "Don't talk about the old lady, wouldn't uncle think of this? After all, our house is separated by one floor, let's see what uncle will do."

"Duke Qian joins the cabinet, brother, do you want to go back to Beijing?"

It is a great joy for Qian Qianli to enter the cabinet.As a disciple, logically, Lin Shu really had to congratulate him.

But Lin Shu shook his head, and said to Daiyu: "No, going at this time is to cause trouble for the teacher. In this way, please invite Zhang Qian to hunt some game in the mountains, and you can pick some brocades and send them to the capital. With the teacher's temper , During this period of time, I will definitely thank guests behind closed doors, if I go, he will be unhappy."

As Lin Shu said, after Lin Jiu returned from the capital, he told Lin Shu and Daiyu about the situation in the capital.

Even though the weather is getting warmer, Lin Jiu feels that the capital city is much more depressed.The common people are still the same, making money to support their families, and gossiping in their spare time.

The biggest change is that the dandies in the capital fell silent again. It is estimated that the elders in the family sensed that the wind direction was wrong and warned them.

The gate of Qian Mansion was closed tightly, and the gate was crowded with visitors.Lin Jiu reported Lin Shu's name, and Menzi brought him in after getting Qian Qianli's permission.

After reading Lin Shu's letter, Qian Qianli accepted the game, brocade and other gifts with a smile, and asked Lin Jiu to give Lin Shu a sentence: "Study hard, and make a big splash in the big exam!"

After listening to Lin Jiu's report, Lin Shu smiled slightly: "Then I'll stay outside the city and study hard to recuperate. The storm in the capital has only just begun to brew, and I can see it more clearly by standing aside."

……

Shi Xiangyun was sent to Rongguo Mansion by Shi Nai. He and his third younger brother Shi Ding will leave Beijing tomorrow to take office. How to arrange for this eldest niece who has never been close to them has become a problem.

Fortunately, the old lady of Rongguo Mansion was still there, and she loved Shi Xiangyun very much on weekdays, so she brought Shi Xiangyun here and wanted Rongguo Mansion to take care of her for a few years.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Beijing after you've been there for three or five years. Girl Yun is about to marry, what about her marriage? Do you want her to be an old girl?"

Jia Shishi was very annoyed by Shi Nai's behavior, she scolded directly: "I watched Yun girl grow up, it's no big deal for me to raise her for a few years, but her marriage has to be done by this second uncle." To be the master, you have to marry from the historian's family. Could it be that there is no place for a Yun girl in your southbound carriage?"
